Chris Ash named secondary coach

On Cyclones.com
Ash first came to Iowa State in 2000 as a defensive graduate assistant under Dan McCarney. He was promoted to secondary coach in 2002 and served in that capacity through 2006. Ash was named recruiting coordinator for that last season.

Honest question about Ash: It seemed like he had success as a secondary coach at ISU, but he has not really progressed much in his career since he was a secondary coach at a non-BCS conference after leaving with DMac. Any ideas why he has not been able to move upward in the coaching ranks?
